Abstract

The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of animal physiology textbook based on higher order thinking skills. Type of this research was quasi experiment. The design used was pretest-posttest control group design. For experimental group, learning process used animal physiology textbook based on higher order thinking skills meanwhile control group used electronic book or journal of animal physiology. Hypothesis was tested by t- test used SPSS 16.0 software program. The post-test result showed that the average score in experimental group (71,19) was higher than control group (55,67) with p-value (0,000) < α (0,05). H0 was rejected and Ha was accepted. Students’ higher order thinking skills in experimental group was significant higher than control group. N-gain result in experimental group was 0,59 in the category of “Good”. It can be concluded that the effectiveness of animal physiology textbook based on higher order thinking skills was good.
